Abstract

"C" shaped root canals are mainly an anatomycal variation of second molar. They have a wide variety of
anastomosis, and irregular communications networks, which can interfere with the three-dimensional
obturation of the root canal system. The case of a female patient aged 51, was admitted to the Specialized
Clinical Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry, University of San Martin de Porres in the Specialty of Endodontics
and Carielogy; with inflammation of the sulcus without fistulous tract at the level of tooth 3.7 with
oclusomesial caries and apparent pulpar compromise. At the clinical and radiographic examination Pulp
Necrosis diagnosis is confirmed. Canal treatment is done and in the final phase, a mixed technique of
obturation associated Thermafil® and GuttaFlow® systems.
